The Zookeeper's Wife — Poland
Jan Żabiński regularly crosses the ghetto wall to bring food and help individuals escape to the zoo.
The Warsaw Ghetto wall was 3 metres high and 18km long, topped with barbed wire. Smuggling — of food in, and people out — was punishable by death. Jan used his official vehicle and a network of sewer workers to move people across. The ghetto was liquidated in stages between 1942-1943, ending with the Uprising.
